introduction

The Atmospherix AS and Atmospherix A20 are
high quality in-ceiling loudspeakers featuring
fully sealed back-boxes to control and
maximise bass response, whilst keeping out
dust and other ceiling inhabitants.

The Atmospherix A20 employs an acoustically
optimised front baffle angled at 20 degrees
allowing its sound output to be projected
towards your primary listening area. The
standard Atmospherix employs a flat front
baffle for uniform sound coverage in all

directions. (figure 1)

applications best suited to Amospherix AS

The wide uniform coverage of the
Atmospherix AS makes it the ideal choice
for 2 channel stereo and background music
applications. Its uniform coverage is ideally
suited to any applications where the listening
area is not confined to a specific part of the
room. For examples, hallways, dinning rooms,
office spaces and bedrooms and multipurpose
rooms. (figure 2)

applications suited to Amospherix A20

The ability of the Atmospherix A20 to project
sound toward your listening primary listening
area makes it ideally suited to home cinema
applications (figure 3). Dialogue will become
more articulate, music will have better
definition and surround effects will become
more involving and realistic. The A20’s ablility
to direct more sound towards the listener
results in less sound reflecting off walls
and other surfaces in the room creating a
clearer, more three dimensional soundstage.
The A20 may also be useful for background
music applications where the speakers must
be placed near a side wall for aesthetic or
structural reasons. In this application the the
A20 can be used to project the sound towards
the centre of the room.
